Sci-fi for thinking fans

Probably not a good movie if you are looking for a lot of action, but one of the better sci-fi movies of the year in my book.

If you want it to complete your trilogy, worth buying on sale. Give me more action - thank you George Miller for the Fury Road back to basics movie.

Ghostbusters: Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson star as a quartet of Manhattan-based "paranormal investigators". When their government grants run out, the former three go into business as The Ghostbusters, later hiring Hudson on. Armed with electronic paraphernalia, the team is spectacularly successful, ridding The Big Apple of dozens of ghoulies, ghosties and long-legged beasties. Tight-lipped bureaucrat William Atherton regards the Ghostbusters as a bunch of charlatans, but is forced to eat his words when New York is besieged by an army of unfriendly spirits, conjured up by a long-dead Babylonian demon and "channelled" through beautiful cellist Sigourney Weaver and nerdish Rick Moranis. The climax is a glorious sendup of every Godzilla movie ever made-and we daresay it cost more than a year's worth of Japanese monster flicks combined. Who'd ever dream that the chubby, cheery Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man would turn out to be the most malevolent threat ever faced by New York City? When the script for Ghostbusters was forged by Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, John Belushi was slated to play the Bill Murray role; Belushi's death in 1982 not only necessitated the hiring of Murray, but also an extensive rewrite. The most expensive comedy made up to 1984, Ghostbusters made money hand over fist, spawning not only a 1989 sequel but also two animated TV series (one of them partially based on an earlier live-action TV weekly, titled The Ghost Busters. Ghostbusters II: Ivan Reitman's sequel to the phenomenally successful Ghostbusters is looser and more self-assured than the original. The film opens with a title reading "Five Years Later" and finds the ghostbusters living in hard times. A restraining order has forbidden the boys to partake in paranormal warfare, and as a result they have had to seek other lines of work. Ray (Dan Aykroyd) and Winston (Ernie Hudson) spend their time performing at children's' birthday parties, and Egon (Harold Ramis) is busy conducting experiments investigating the effect of human emotions on the environment, leaving ghostbusting behind. Venkman (Bill Murray) and Dana (Sigourney Weaver) have split up. Venkman now hosts a local cable show called "The World of the Psychic." Dana, now divorced and the mother of a little baby named Oscar, works as an art restorer in a museum -- and this is where the plot kicks in. While Dana is restoring a portrait of a 16th-century tyrant by the name of Vigo the Carpathian, the portrait becomes hexed. The evil Vigo wants to return to life by taking over the body of Dana's little child. Vigo has enlisted Dana's boss, Janosz Poha (Peter MacNicol), to compel Dana to cooperate. Soon dirty sludge and slime flow through the streets of Manhattan, and the ghostbusters have to reunite to save the city from a funky paranormal evil.

Most of us know the second movie is passable at best, but if you can snag a deal on the set, might as well own it.

Good for a secondary TV

Has nearly all of the features of the Roku 3 but at lower price. The Wi-Fi connection seems to be fairly reliable, but I still prefer my Roku 3 connected directly to a router for the fastest speeds, especially for cord cutters. A power cord needs to be connected to the stick to operate, may be an issue if you don't have an extra outlet nearby.

After several attempts to pair up with my Bluetooth laptop, couldn't get it to connect. Researched on Microsoft website, checked Bluetooth version, etc. and gave up. Returned to Best Buy. Too bad, I thought this would have been a nice traveling mouse.

The Yoga 3 fits precisely into this case - the case has a nice magnetic catch on the closure and openings to access the USB ports along the sides. Gotta have it!

Maybe a little pricey, but what do you expect for any product that is basically a inexpensive vinyl bag with a zipper? Just add $10 to the price since it has the 'Skylanders' printed on it.

What can you say about a plastic 'character' that has to be inserted into an 'arena' to enhance the play of a kid's video game? Brilliant marketing, that's what I call it!

I guess I'm getting old and don't understand the idea of placing a character in some sort of contraption just to enhance gameplay on a video game. What a racket!

Record and view crisp, clear video with this unlocked LG V30+ smartphone. A FullVision OLED screen delivers brilliant images, while multiple camera modes include special settings for food, panoramic shots and selfies. Superior Hi-Fi audio offers an immersive listening experience for your favorite playlists. Featuring a moveable, collapsible toolbar, this unlocked LG V30+ smartphone gives you easy access to call notifications, texts and app shortcuts.
 

I recently purchased an LG V30+. I am used to having an indicator on my screen (when my screen is black) that tells me when I have message (small blue or green light in the upper corner that blinks). Are there any indicators on this phone like that?

There are no LED indicators on this model - in the screen settings you can set an always on display where tha screen goes black but shows time/date and displays the small icons on the screen for email, etc. Allows you to double tap to reach the slide up screen. Might use a slight amount of extra battery power in this mode.

Enjoy DISH entertainment in a portable setup with this DISH playmaker antenna, and surf channels with the included DISH Wally receiver. An integrated carrying handle makes it easy to move, and the 25-foot coax cable offers easy connection. This DISH playmaker antenna works with 110-, 119-, and 129-degree satellite positions for versatile viewing.
 

can I hook up 2 tv's to this antenna? I only see one reciever box in package. How would I get another box? And does Best Buy sell the service or do I have to talk to Dish about that ??

You need an HDMI switch box to connect two TV's to this device. This system only supports one receiver. When you set up the system, it will find the satellites, download software updates, then instruct you to call DISH network to activate the receiver and purchase a programming package.

Connect a USB device, such as a keyboard, mouse or thumb drive, to your Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 or Tab 3 using this Samsung Galaxy EPL-AU10WEGXAR micro-USB-to-USB adapter. The compact size lets you easily take the adapter with you while you travel.
 

does this usb adapter work for samsung galaxy 4 7"? will it allow a portable DVD drive to work on it?

I want to know if this cord will allow for a portable DVD drive to work on the Samsung galaxy 4 7" to play a portable DVD drive?
It will make the USB connection from the DVD drive to a micro USB port as found in most Samsung devices. Your main problem is going to be whether or not Android has a software driver available to operate the drive. You'll know when you plug it in. Generally this is never a problem for PC or Mac computers - tablets who knows ??
